I should have asked if you had ever found a method that worked. :-)
Out of body, achieved correctly, could allow us access to our real reality. Dreams barely touch the surface of the “reality” we each can create with our minds and hearts.
Imagine controlling your dreams.
No problem.
It just takes me a while to type it all out.
The Doritos one the dog who buried the cat
The kid who thought he was going to get the car for graduation,Chevy
The vampires with the Audi
I thought this years commercials way better than last.
Yet won’t go out and buy any of those products.
Yeah. The PT for the right shoulder was a deeee-light.
“just to be safe...Oreos on the side. “ Y’all really know how to throw a party!
Does anyone recall Walt Kelly’s corruption of “Deck the Halls”? It went something like:
Deck us all with Boston Charlie
Walla walla Wash and Kalamazoo
Holly Molly don’t love Harold
Boola boola pensacoola hullaballoo
Don we now archaic barrels....
I still can’t get Deck the Halls right.
Deck us all with Boston Charlie,
Walla Walla, Wash., an’ Kalamazoo!
Nora’s freezin’ on the trolley,
Swaller dollar cauliflower alley-garoo!
Don’t we know archaic barrel
Lullaby Lilla Boy, Louisville Lou?
Trolley Molly don’t love Harold,
Boola boola Pensacoola hullabaloo!
Bark us all bow-wows of folly,
Polly wolly cracker ‘n’ too-da-loo!
Donkey Bonny brays a carol,
Antelope Cantaloupe, ‘lope with you!
Hunky Dory’s pop is lolly gaggin’ on the wagon,
Willy, folly go through!
Chollie’s collie barks at Barrow,
Harum scarum five alarm bung-a-loo!
Dunk us all in bowls of barley,
Hinky dinky dink an’ polly voo!
Chilly Filly’s name is Chollie,
Chollie Filly’s jolly chilly view halloo!
Bark us all bow-wows of folly,
Double-bubble, toyland trouble! Woof, woof, woof!
Tizzy seas on melon collie!
Dibble-dabble, scribble-scrabble! Goof, goof, goof!
I found it.

Goodnight and sweet dreams, y’all!
Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you for gifting us with your august presence.
Okay, February presence.
Thanks, anyway. This joint always needs more class.
Aww, geez, ‘fan, yer killin’ me. You went trompin’ right through the middle of the Truth, there. I mean, it’s as if you walked out to Home Plate in Jesus’ very own ballpark, but thought it was the corner sandlot, ‘cuz the lights weren’t on, just then.
You’re in a place beyond your deepest longings, and you don’t recognize it, because it doesn’t look like you’d imagined it, and the Truth of it hasn’t been revealed to your heart.
C’mon, FRiends! Strap in, and I’ll fire this baby up. I’ve got the green light to take you for a “teaser” lap, albeit in first gear.
Historically, Christianity has said a fair piece about Jesus being “The Way” and “The Door”; it has not spoken nearly enough about what Jesus is The Way — or The Door — to. Consequently, 99.999999% of all humanity perceives the Christian faith as little more than a “Get out of Hell Free” card; fire insurance for the eternally insecure. There are many who “get saved” every year, but millions more just pass on it all, because they haven’t been given a COMPELLING VISION of what’s to be gained. Ideas of Heaven largely center on boring figures floating from cloud to cloud playing harps in supposed eternal bliss.
Ask any man on the street what Christianity preaches, and you’ll get some variant on “You’ve got to believe in Jesus because he died to save you from your sin so you won’t go to Hell forever.”
It’s a NEGATIVE vision; “Repent, or else...”
“Goin’ up to the Spirit in the sky; ya got ta have a friend in Jesus...”
What people do not know — the message that hasn’t been preached, but NEEDS to be — is that there IS a TRULY COMPELLING, POSITIVE vision that FAR and away eclipses the negative motivation.
Put simply, the call to faith in Jesus is a Divine invitation into a REALITY beyond your dearest dreams; an appeal to your very heart of hearts to enter into a super-massively lopsided relationship in which you pony up your mere mortal existence in return for a forever long discovery of a fascinating and enthralling Personality of a scope and magnitude that infinitely exceeds your ability to even conceive His extent.
You gain continuously on a forever basis, and it begins NOW with a simple, “I repent, and believe.”
The Greatest Deception is that EVERYTHING that sounds too good to be true, is.
The Greatest Truth is that there is ONE THING that is SO GOOD that it CANNOT NOT BE True, and that One Thing is eternal salvation in Jesus Christ LEADING to forever relationship with, and discovery of, The Person, and Realm of God Himself.
If I sound completely evangelistic about this, it’s because I am. I cannot fault Christianity for emphasizing salvation in Christ for 2000 years; it’s all true, and without that necessary First Step, the rest is totally moot. But that 2o00-year-old message has been lacking the unimaginably compelling answer to the core question, “Salvation leading to...what?”
For 2000 years, that question has been met with — mostly — crickets. I aim to deliver the follow-up message.
You’ve likely heard the HOW to be saved time and time again throughout your life; it’s high time you heard the WHY.
Your wishing about dreams touches on that True Reality.
You want a REAL Flying Castle? God’s GOT the tech, the materials, the expertise, AND the time. Nothing’s lacking in this picture but you, and whoever else wants to come along.
YOU REALLY CAN HAVE IT; SEE IT; KNOW IT; LIVE IT! The Price was paid; all you have to do is REPENT, and BELIEVE, and you will come to see dreams beyond your most treasured imaginings become REAL before your very eyes.
Jesus didn’t just die so you could escape Hell; in fact, that was the smallest fragment of his real motivation. He did all that he did SO YOU could be with HIM. He even said so, “Father, I want those you have given me to be with me where I am, and to see my glory, the glory you have given me because you loved me before the creation of the world.”
You see, the MAIN REASON Jesus died was so he could hang out with YOU, forever; it is his DEAREST DREAM; the desire of his very heart of hearts.
THAT almost begins to scratch the surface of answering, “Why faith in Jesus Christ?”
Oh, dear.
I guess nobody’s vision of Utopia actually works for everyone, does it?
“Good King Sauerkraut, look out!
On yo’ feets uneven.
While the snoo lay roun’ about,
All kerchoo achievin’.”
Now that’s what I call mind blowing stuff, HKMk23! Sure puts things in perspective for me. Thanks for waking me out of the doldrums. Wow!
True, but this one vision of Utopia will work for more people than any other. Still, it has its detractors.
Where are you finding these? My Thomas, the one with the totally original verbal faculties, will be hysterical.
It prompted a short story in me. All I have to do now is write it. Maybe I'll be able to capture the point I want to make.
To (roughly) paraphrase St. Paul, from last Sunday’s epistle, “One presentation works with one person, and a different presentation reaches someone else.” (Well, it sounded better in the original Spanish ...)
I paid your county auto tax bill yesterday; this will be a deductible expense for your 2012 tax. I’m not getting your pay statements, so I probably won’t get your W-2, either. You should have received it by now. Don’t lose it! Put it in an envelope and mail it to me with $.44 postage, because a copy has to be included with your tax return.
